OverviewDesu's ENDS-010 Series External Ventricular Drainage (EVD) System is a clinician-focused solution for managing intracranial pressure and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) drainage in acute hydrocephalus, intraventricular hemorrhage, traumatic brain injury, post-craniotomy monitoring and other neurocritical scenarios. The system integrates infection-control measures with precision fluid management to support rapid bedside deployment and reliable long-term monitoring.
Key Features- Antibiotic-impregnated ventricular catheter to reduce catheter-related infections and biofilm formation.
- Smooth, flexible catheter design for efficient CSF drainage and structural stability under physiological conditions.
- Clear, calibrated pressure/ruler for real-time monitoring and precise adjustment of drainage in mmHg or cmH2O.
- Transparent construction for visual inspection of flow and CSF characteristics.
- Latex-free and DEHP-free materials for improved biocompatibility.
Components Included- Antibiotic-impregnated ventricular catheter
- Precision stylet for guided insertion
- Angled trocar to facilitate minimally invasive cranial access
- Fixation tab for secure catheter anchoring
- Luer lock connector and distal cap for secure closure
- 60 cm reinforced cord with locking mechanism to stabilize drainage height
- 30 cm measuring ruler for setting/monitoring drainage pressure (mmHg or cmH2O)
- 150 ml drip chamber for visual inspection of CSF
- High-capacity 800 ml drainage bag with integrated air filter
- Two three-way connectors for flexible routing and flushing
- Hydrophobic filter to help maintain sterility and prevent microbial/air contamination
Design & UsabilityThe ENDS-010 system is designed for fast bedside use: components are ergonomically designed and the kit is delivered sterile and ready-to-use to reduce assembly time and sterile-field complexity during emergency and ICU procedures. The system's transparent elements and calibrated ruler support easy observation and fine-tuning of CSF output, helping clinicians prevent overdrainage and intracranial hypotension.
Clinical Benefits- Integrated antibiotic catheter reduces risk of catheter-related infection and associated ICU stays/readmissions.
- Plug-and-play sterile kit minimizes time-to-treatment in time-sensitive neurosurgical scenarios.
- Precise fluid control and clear visual cues aid in improved patient outcomes and streamlined clinical workflow.
Packaging & SafetyThe complete EVD system is pre-packaged in sterile form for immediate clinical use. Materials are latex-free and DEHP-free to enhance patient safety and biocompatibility.
